	Video/Mixtape: Dolla Will - "Addicted"	02.27.2012


	Latest Visual Accompanies Life Before Dolla Will Mixtape, Boss Flow Album

The Video: Later this year, Bay Area rapper and Clear Label Records recording artist Dolla Will is planning to release his latest album, *Boss Flow. As he continues to put final touches on the project, he's excited to release a video for the album's latest single, "Addicted," a follow up to the Too $hort-assisted lead single "Work That Body," along with a brand new pre-album mixtape, Life Before Dolla Will. The video was directed by Hiero's* own Casual, for his video production company Wet Foot Filmworks, and features Will not only showing off his musical chops, but also getting into some acting. "This was me making my first acting debut," explains Dolla, who shows off some promising chops in front of the camera throughout the visual. "We wanted to make sure the visuals tied into the song, showing me hustling, being addicted to the life I live." The video opens with Dolla Will and his girl in the midst of an argument - Dolla Will eloquently referencing a unique breed of butterflies to explain his need to hustle - and while the song's hook, a chopped vocal chant of "I'm addicted to this life/ It's gon' be hard to quit," and hustle-heavy verses play along, Will spends his day on the grind, hitting the local horse tracks - betting and winning big - before catching up with a business associate for a lucrative rendezvous.

The Background: In Oakland, California's music scene rappers come a dime a dozen. But very few have the chops to claim MC lineage dating back to the golden era of Oakland rap. Veteran MC Dolla Will embodies the energy of a new-school rapper combined with the heritage of starting his career with bonafide Oakland legends Too $hort and the Hieroglyphics crew. Will was featured on Too $hort's albums Independence Day, which earned him a gold plaque, and You Nasty, and continued to reach his fans with features and collaborations with E-40, Petey Pablo, Lil' Jon, and Bay locals Casual, Beeda Weeda, and San Quinn, and producers like Ant Banks and Traxamillion. Dolla Will is currently working on his upcoming album, *Boss Flow, which is being released through Clear Label Records.
